Billy Squier - LOVER lyrics

rate me

I was green in my younger days

Full of plans but not much knowin'

Tried my hand at the game of love

But I was so naive

From the shelter of mama's wings

Learned to fly but I was broken

By a woman of 25

When I was just 19

Didn't know where to find myself

The rules they were not so simple

Makes no sense tryin' to face this world

'Til you're old enough to fight

Lover...you're the reason I'll be home tonite

Lover...never thought that I would see the light

I was hungry in '81

For a time I thought I'd found her

Found myself on the road again

Freezin' from the cold

Fortune found me in '82

With a girl from way down under

She seemed like the natural thing

I thought I knew for sure

Tried to hold her--I could not see

Past her eyes was a spell unbroken

Battered visions and frozen dreams

That would never see the light...now you're my

Lover...you're the reason I'll be home tonite

Lover...someone told me it comes once-in-a-lifetime

Lover...never thought that I would see the light

Lover...you're the reason I'll be home tonite

It's a long road to salvation

People say nothin' lasts forever

But when it comes to the bottom line

When I make it I'll see you there...see you there

Once in a lifetime...

Now we're lookin' on better times

It seems like a miracle

But I'll never forget those days

I'm ready now to fight...for you my

Lover...you're the reason I'll be home tonite

Lover...someone told me it comes once-in-a-lifetime

Lover...never thought that I would see the light

Lover...you're the reason I'll be home tonite

Once in a lifetime...
